Chapter 785


    Nicole knew that Evan would want her to fill him in with the details. However, she couldn’t tell him the


    truth since Levant had threatened her with her father’s safety. Fortunately, she hade prepared.


    “Lately, things have been great on my end. I have headed out for a meal with my assistant for a simple


    celebration. What about you? Why do you seem to be having a hard timetely? Is it because of your


    company?”


    Evan nodded and denoted, “It’s not a big deal. I have everything under control.”


    Nicole was silent at this.

    Liar!


    Even though Nicole had seen right through his lie, she was conscious that it was a white lie because he


    was worried that she would be concerned. Hence, she decided to stop poking her nose into his business.


    “Where are the little ones?”


    “They have tucked themselves in. You should head over and take a shower immediately. It’s almost time


    for bed.”


    “Sure.”


    Nicole walked past Evan and headed upstairs, returning to their bedroom.


    Staring at her departing figure, a sense of uncertainty flickered in his eyes; he was confused by the scent


    of tobo on her dress. It didn’t make any sense since she had merely dined with her assistant.


    Albeit faintly, Evan, who had always been sensitive toward scents, could detect the scent of tobo that


    was exclusive to a certain someone.


    It must have been a coincidence, right? Stop overthinking things, Evan! She’s thest person on Earth


    that you should suspect.


    He chuckled and found that his thoughts were absurd.


    Once he sorted out the things that he had in his mind, he brought himself upstairs and switched on his


    computer. Typing, he focused intently on his work.


    Meanwhile, Nicole indulged herself in a hot bath. Trying to procure the aid of someone who would be


    familiar with the structure of Wicked Pce, she wanted someone to infiltrate the Pce and locate her


    father on her behalf.


    Nevertheless, the only candidate that she could think of was herself. As she had stayed in Wicked


    Pce for some time back then, she was familiar with its structure. However, Levant would definitely


    take notice of the things that she was up to, the moment she made her trip to K Nation. If he took him


    somewhere else, it would be increasingly difficult to locate her father’s whereabouts.


    Soon, she reached for her phone and called the maid, urging her, “Tell Lady Musgrave that he’s still in


    Wicked Pce. Get her to send someone who’s familiar with the structure of the Pce to infiltrate the


    ce and locate him.”


    “Lady Musgrave has already sent someone over to infiltrate the wicked pce. We’ll get in touch with


    you as soon as we have any updates on the situation.”


    “Okay.”


    After she hung up the call, Nicole let out another long sigh. She was pretty sure that she was the reason


    that her father had been imprisoned in Wicked Pce.


    Levant would never let her off the hook easily. She was afraid that it would take more than a few meals


    with him to save her father.


    With that being said, there wasn’t anything that she could do about it either. Therefore, she decided to


    take it one step at a time.


    After taking her shower, she walked out of the bathroom, but Evan was nowhere to be seen in the room.


    She knew that he must have been spending his time in his study room again. Hence, she walked over to


    his study room immediately.


    As she reached the study room, she heard that he was in the middle of a conversation through the


    phone.


    Nicole kept silent.


    “These projects are of utmost importance. If they go wrong, Seet Group will suffer huge losses.”


    “I knew it! Murphy was the one behind all the project issues in K Nation!”


    Nicole couldn’t believe her ears. She was right all along because it wasn’t a mere coincidence.


    Caught up in her train of thought once more, she couldn’t figure out the reason that Levant had


    imprisoned her father and had made a move against Seet Group.


    What on Earth does he want? Levant and Murphy are equally as nasty as each other! Can Evan handle


    the issues that hispany has encountered?


    She stole a peek at Evan and noticed that he was in the middle of something in a serious manner after


    hanging up the call. Thus, she decided not to get in his way as she strode her way back to the bedroom


    instead.


    Feeling a strong sense of insecurity, she reached out for her phone and called Levant.


    “Nicole, what brings you to call in the middle of the night?”


    “Why are you picking on Evan and Seet Group?”


    “Nicole, Evan is apetitor of mine. It’s merely a fairpetition. I’m not picking on anyone in


    particr.”


    “Levant, what are you up to in particr?”


    “I’m afraid that I don’t understand what you’re talking about, Nicole.”


    Damn it! Stop acting in front of me! I’ll be sure to reveal your true colors soon!


    She decided to hang up because it would be impossible for her to get to the bottom of the entire issue if


    she had run it by him.


    Lying on the bed, she tossed and turned due to the unsolved mysteries.


    In the middle of the night, the drowsy woman, who had been sleeping soundly, was roused from her


    sleep the moment she detected a pair of gigantic arms around her waist.


    Feeling the man’s sturdy chest, Nicole was aware that Evan had returned to their bedroom. She leaned


    against him and asked, “What time is it?”
